The thing on Castle that made me yell at the screen was the thermal hotspots. They didn't move and they were round and didn't change shape. A person bound to a chair wouldn't make a moving spot, of course, but the bad guy would have moved. Even if he was sitting in a chair, he'd have stretched out his legs or something.
Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

So everybody missed there was a new Bones tonight? That probably doesn't speak well for the ratings.
I liked bits of it (especially the acknowledgment that Brennan couldn't write those books on her own), but found Daisy so Tracy Flick off-putting that Sweet's proposal felt like a bit of a death sentence. And I don't think that's how I was supposed to feel.

Thursday nights I don't get back from the Y until 9 this quarter. Bones is now computer-viewing.

Trust my rage
I'm hoping my Tivo got Bones because I was watching Survivor. Hopefully I can catch it tomorrow.

The interviewer annoyed me with the continued refusal to believe that the people in the lab were not identical to the characters in the book.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
I end up watching bones on the interwebs during the weekend as i have to reserve my vcr for vampire diaries since the &^(*&^(* CW often takes more than a week to post the newest episode and i hate being forced to wait. FOX and ABC, OTOH, post episodes in a timely fashion. Someday i might invest in two tvs and vcrs (or a dvr) to not be forced into this situation.

Re: Castle, one of my cop friends (who also loves the show) pointed out that there are rules about felony pursuits (and chasing a serial killer totally counts) that would have permitted Beckett to take the shot through the glass door of the subway train, since he was momentarily a stationary target. Granted, that's an Oregon rule but i suspect the laws in New York would be considerably more lenient. I still would be concerned about shooting through his head to an innocent bystander, so i'll give Beckett the benefit of the doubt.
Ok, moving on, i know we've all discounted the procedural aspect of the show, that just happened to come up in casual conversation tonight at work. Seriously.
